who are these f'n announcers trying to say it wasnt a dirty hit? a shoulder to the head 3 seconds after the pass was made????? wtffff???? i hope the bruins beat the canucks over their heads with their sticks and then go after these azzwipe announcers...

I don't know what Rome's intent was. I don't think it's relevant. It's a hit that was almost a second after the puck left Horton's stick. Contact was made to the head. It's textbook, and has to be multiple games.

Im going to say they do a game, MAYBE 2. It SHOULD be the rest of the season plus 10 next season if Paille got 4 for his hit. A crap d-man against THE top forward. Its a disgrace that this series has come down to Vancouver becoming the new Montreal. What a circus.

Let's hope Horts is ok, and just win tonight......for him. It doesn't look good at the moment, but maybe it will be the turning point for this team and have them fight back and get the wins they so desparately need to get in this series.

Not sure what Rome was thinking? I don't know what his past is, or if he is a dirty player...but from now on he will be known as a dirty player because of this hit. It was a deplorable hit and made me sick to watch it. Rest of the playoffs at the very least. I agree with some other posters that someone is going to get killed in this league if these type of hits continue.

Has to be at least the rest of the season and some next year. There is a late hit and then there is that hit. Have to see it again, but I thought he left his feet too. Absolute definition of a cheap hit, blind side or not...

He didn't leave his feet but that doesn't change the legality of the hit at all. Terrible.

Relax big boy...it always says that at the bottom of my comments...look in the mirror when you talk about pathetic...LOL people in glass houses. In Response to Re: So is Murphy going to look the other way on that one? :Posted by TomOBrien

I was thinking the exact same thing. Seems he's too reactionary to think things through. By the way, are you actually in the service or is that a picture you found online?
